7. Shirley Temple 秀兰·邓波儿
(April 23, 1928 – February 10, 2014)
When Chinese audiences saw this adorable child star for the first time on screen, Shirley Temple had already lived for more than half a century. In her movies, she was always alone or in trouble, but this adorable little blonde, who smiled with dimples, could always resolve anything with her kindness, push away the fogginess and bring about light. The brand "Shirley Temple" was a product of the Great Depression. People watched her act to forget their hardships as Temple entertained the poor, the rich, adults and children alike. Several decades later, when her films were screened in China, the effects were the same. Whenever she was around, people forgot about their troubles. We hope she will forget all of her troubles as she rests in peace.
当中国观众第一次在荧幕上看见这个可爱的童星时,秀兰·邓波儿(1928-2014)本人已经年过半百。在她的电影中,她总是孤独寂寞或惹上麻烦,但这个一笑就露出酒窝的可爱金发小姑娘总能用她的善良解决一切,拨云见日。“秀兰·邓波儿”这个牌子是大萧条时代的产物。人们看她的演出来忘却自己的苦难,邓波儿让所有人都快乐起来,不管是穷人,富人,成年人还是小孩子。几十年后,当她的电影在中国上映时,也收到了同样的效果。只要有她在的地方,人们就忘却了自己的烦恼。我们希望在她安息后她也能忘却所有的烦恼。
